The global healthcare chatbots market size was exhibited at USD 230.28 million in 2023 and is estimated to grow around USD 944.65 million by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 16.98% from 2023 to 2032. The healthcare chatbots market is likely to expand in the upcoming years with the rising trend of social media-oriented chatbots across the globe. Alongside this, the growing demand for virtual health assistance services to monitor the health of patients is expected to foster market growth.
The healthcare chatbots market develops chatbots that are specialized to deal with healthcare professionals and patients to improve work and patient care. Hospitals and other healthcare facilities integrate chatbots for smooth connections with clients. The integration of chatbots in healthcare allows auto-answering facilities for patients according to their questions. These chatbots also assist doctors in addressing the concerns of patients who are minors in general.
Healthcare facilities can save a significant amount of time due to the integration of these chatbots, as it helps free up staff and allows them to concentrate on their main tasks. The healthcare market has experienced a substantial rise in demand for these digital assistants as they allow smoother interaction between doctors and patients, thereby increasing the accuracy and efficiency of professionals.
Rising demand for 24*7 services and adoption of smart devices fuels the market’s growth.
The healthcare sector has expanded rapidly due to advancements in internet connectivity and the rising adoption of smart devices. The availability of smart devices can allow patients and doctors to access information online and sit remotely. According to the HIMSS State of Healthcare report, 75% of U.S. healthcare systems had started investing in initiatives related to digital transformation in 2022. Also, the advent of the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) has transformed patient care in hospitals by enabling doctors to schedule online appointments, allowing remote interaction between doctors and patients, and reducing waiting times to visit doctors. Thus, the adoption of smart devices with better internet facilities is likely to boost the growth of the healthcare chatbot market. In addition, healthcare chatbots allow round-the-clock availability and accessibility to various services and information related to healthcare. Due to the integration of chatbots, patients can ask questions, seek guidance, and receive personalized assistance anywhere by eliminating the need to wait in long queues to visit doctors.
However, the risk of inaccuracy in data security-related concerns is expected to restrain the growth of the healthcare chatbot market during the forecast period. These chatbots record sensitive information about patients, medical history, and other personal details. Thus, any breaches or mishandling of patient data can create trust-related issues in the minds of patients, thereby restraining market growth. Also, improper training of chatbots can lead to inaccuracy of information that, in turn, restrains the growth of the healthcare chatbots market.
